The Bulldog Bash party does not have to end when The All-American Rejects exit the stage.
People can walk down to the Cotton District and enter Two Brothers Smokehouse to hang out, eat and listen to more great music. Two Brothers Smokehouse will host two bands, Bryce Mitchell and the Soul Exchange at 10 p.m. after Bulldog Bash Sept. 28.
Sims Koerber, the event manager and chef at Two Brothers Smokehouse, said the members of Bryce Mitchell and Soul Exchange decided to come together for this performance in order to achieve a big-band popular sound.
“We have live music every game weekend, and would love for you all to join us after games,” said Koerber.
Bryce Mitchell, a Mississippi native and Mississippi State University graduate, is a singer/songwriter wanting a band, including a horn section and backup singers, to accompany his music. This collaborative musical performance will consist of talented guitarists, bass guitarists, drums, percussion, saxophone and of course, Mitchell’s vocals.
“We play original music I’ve written and covers that include funk, soul and rock ‘n roll,” Mitchell said.
The band’s musical style compares to the popular 1960s band Muscle Shoals from Alabama. While the band does not expect to have any new releases soon, they hope to jump back in the recording studio next year. Expect to hear some original songs including “Soul Exchange,” “Rose Colored Glasses” and “Holy Stone.”
“We will also be performing at Dave’s Dark Horse Tavern on Halloween, and would love to see some familiar faces from this performance,” said Mitchell.
With every great live performance comes great food. Two Brothers will carry on the Bulldog Bash vendor vibe with its late night pick-up window offering their famous smoked wings and cheese fries. A beer cart will be located outside along with the bar inside, and drink specials on domestic beers will also be going on at the after party.
Colton Trigg, an MSU senior, said he has been to Two Brothers Smokehouse before and likes the convenience of the restaurant’s location.  
“Their wings were out of this world, but there wasn’t any live music when I went, so I am excited to hear that they will have a band this time,” Trigg said.
Trigg said he is excited to attend this post-Bulldog Bash hangout, and looks forward to listening to the performing band.
“I’ve never heard of Bryce Mitchell and the Soul Exchange, but its name is intriguing, so I am excited to hear what they sound like,” Trigg said. “I am looking forward to sitting down at a table, eat my wings and cheese fries, and listen to some more good music.”
